Sandra -- if you're having a yard sale, put me down for one of the featherweights!!

boy do i feel better!! I thought that I was really obseesive because I can't get rid of anything I have now. I did give away my mom's singer futura a long time ago I gave my janome gem to my daughter because I had it out of the case once in a whole bunch of years. so that leaves me with

my bernina 930(my second one) I sold the first one I hadapplicqued sweatshirts for a couple of years and from what I hear it is still going strong bought the new one in 1987

my bernina serger

bernina 153 doesn't get out much

bernina 450 with embroidery

and i just traded my 2002 milli for a 2010 with quilt glide, didn't get bliss but did invest in a hydralic(that doesn't look like it is spelled right) lift.

I have a couple machines myself. I have most of them packed away so I can't think of the models numbers or names off hand.

1909 Unique threadle

2 antique Singers

2 antique hand cranks

a industrial Singer

2 Janomes

6 Brothers

a Kenmore

and my Ultimate 1

Someday when and if I ever get this house finish with the remodeling, I'd like to set most of them up.

I can't beat any of you guys!

I have;

A Janome 9000 circa 1998( I've always had Janome domestic machines, this is my third purchase but the others were sold/given away).

A Singer treadle in cabinet made in Scotland in 1947, works perfectly. Given to me last year by a work colleague of my husband's. I was absolutely thrilled!

My APQS Millie ( Waltzing Matilda) 2009

My previous Nolting 18" longarm, still for sale if anyone in Australia is interested!!

I just gave some of my older machines that still work (White, Kenmore, Brother) to the local abused women and children's shelter. I had them serviced first, talk about appreciative, you would have thought I gave them gold bricks.
